oscar would of had trouble with that much speed and that intense of a pace, no matter how old oscar was. Pac didn't just beat oscar, what counts more is that he look great at 147. Anybody would have trouble with pacs speed and pace.
Do you know what it means to have a boxer passed his prime? Sure, Pac is good and all but he beat an old ODLH. What looks good here is that he beat, well, OSCAR DE LA HOYA and not "an old and passed his prime" ODLH. We have seen other legends do the same mistake of staying in the ring longer then they should only to have a young prospect beat them and look great regardless of that legend being old, worned out, passed his prime.
Pac seems to be going through the right path. We will see more exciting fights. There are lots of big names out there that are young and IN THEIR PRIME. Looking forward to those fights.
